We arrived early after cruise ship docked and the staff were so helpful. Checked our bags and we set off to explore Athens. Returned in the afternoon hot and tired. We day in the lobby to await check in when a staff member walked over and checked us in where we sat! Our bags had already been delivered and the AC preset by the bellhop made the very clean and modern room so comfortable. After an evening visit to the nearby Acropolis we wandered back through numerous shops and restaurants and enjoyed the rooftop dining at Savvas. The front desk also set up a ride to the airport for a fair price. A short but very fun stay thanks to the great staff at Residence Aiolou!

A Hidden Jewel in Old Town
This Hotel was great. Tucked away in the older part of town made it hard to find, but there was easy access to everything from there. This hotel was well kept, has an elevator, a small restaurant, a spa, message area, and a bar. My room was a small suite with lots of light and a balcony. From my balcony I could see the Acropolis which was lit up at night. The Acropolis and many other ruins were within walking distance. There is a wide variety restaurants and shops near by. Great spot for seeing Athens.

Can’t say enough about the quality and attitude of service at this hotel. Every employee went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. They carried luggage, gave us free waters, and even called us in the morning to ensure we would have transportation to the airport. The area is in the heart of Athens, on a block busy with thousands of shoppers and tourists - making the hotel difficult to locate at first. It also feels a bit small. If you’re looking for a quiet, secluded hotel, this may not be for you. If you need a place to stay in the middle of the city though, I can’t recommend this hotel enough!

The staff here are excellent. Each one we spoke to was knowledgable and made us feel most welcome. Our suite was attractive, comfortable and had amenities like a luggage rack, robes, slippers and coffee/tea, toothbrushes etc. The room needs a bit of a glow-up as there were some stains are the upholstery and the pocket door to the bathroom was quite scratched. The location could not be beat! It was on a pedestrian-only stretch of restaurants and a path to shopping and sites within a very short distance - Syntagma, Acropolis, the Plaka, etc. We had a breathtaking view of the Parthenon from our balcony as well. Breakfast had lots of variety and was quite tasty. The egg dishes were never hot, though, so that was a disappointment. The staff arranged a taxi to the airport for us and sent up an iron right away when needed. This hotel shines in customer service.
